Cruise Update!

Cruise Update

Im home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The cruise was freakin awesome. Plus 40 degree weather. Far cry from -30 C. It was so hot. The beaches were georgous, so were the guys:). The boat was huge!!!! Lots of shows everynight, food. Everything.

The only thing I did not enjoy was too much heat, shopping (ppl bug you like crazy to come into their shops) I had at least 5 woman offer to braid my hair, like the way the African Americans do. And the number 1 thing! Our luggage got lost in New York on the way there. The on the way back, in Chicago.

We still don't have our luggage. They are gonna deliver it to our place within the week, hopefully.

Its all because we switched from Canadian airlines to American, and so MUCH SECURITY. You even have to take off your shoes.

But other then that our cruise was awesome. Back to school on the 31st, Then 6 more months I am GRADUATED!

Just 2 weeks from now is BRACE DAY!

Note: (Im not sure if we can use the word freakin or not) if not Im sorry

In total I've had 8 extractions. Got my wisdom teeth out about 6 years ago because they were horribly misguided. Just got 4 premolars out in December because I didn't have enough room in my mouth to pull my front teeth back any other way.

Quick Question

#43 Post by chillin-in-grilz »

I've been seeing everyones changes in their teeth. But what were the changes in general?

Like
The way you chew
You bite
Eat
Did your jaw move forward or backward?
If you have TMJ did it go away?
Did you have to have jaw surgery to finalised your smile
Did you get a better profile
Also, what is it like when your wires are changed? Do feel the wires? Do the pressure of the braces change after a while, as if you dont have them on?
Also did your facial features change?
ONE LAST QUESTION: You know how my insicor is way behind my front tooth. which gap is that going in and which one is the one thats way up in my gums going?
Is it incisor 1st then the other or the other then incisor?

My 2 gaps are closing from my last 2 extractions. Plus all my other gaps are closing:)

lol sorry for the long post

It's normal to br anxious. I was really worried about what I would look like. Everyone has said that they don't really notice, especially that now a week later I'm talking normally again!
